This question is missing the paragraph we must read to answer it. I've found it online, and it is as follows:
Levine and Kearney see the study as a clear lesson in the value of a (very cheap) mass-media complement to preschool. The potentially controversial implication they embrace from the study isn't about childhood education. It's about college, and the trend toward low-cost massive open online courses, or MOOCs.
Answer:
The word that gives the best definition for complete as it is used in paragraph 11 of "Study: Kids can learn as much from 'Sesame Street' as from preschool?" is:
B. to complete or make whole.
Explanation:
The verb "to complement" can refer to the action of completing something or to the action of enhancing something. After reading the paragraph, it is clear the author is talking of the possibility of completing education as we know it. Using mass media is a cheap way to give thousands of people access to education, complementing or completing what is already commonly offered. Having that in mind, the best option to answer this question is letter B. to complete or to make whole.

Answer:
<u>What is the original definition of the "American dream"?</u>
In the definition of the American Dream by James Truslow Adams in 1931, "life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement" regardless of social class or circumstances of birth.
<u>What was Fitzgerald’s overall message regarding this theme?</u>
Fitzgerald offers a complex vision of the post-World War One era. In the prosperous 1920s, most people gained faith in progress and some made great fortunes. But for ordinary people like the Wilsons, luxury and security remained out of reach. Fitzgerald seems to have little faith that the golden days would last because they were founded on an illusion.
Explanation:
Through close examination of the green light, one may learn that the force that empowers Gatsby to follow his lifelong aspiration is that of the American Dream. Fitzgerald uses the green light as a symbol of hope, money, and jealousy. Gatsby looks up to the American dream and follows it so he can be the picture perfect man that every girl desires. Gatsby cares a lot about how people see him, and his appearance towards others. He wants everything to look perfect for Daisy, as he wants Daisy to view him as a perfect man. “We both looked down at the grass – there was a sharp line where my ragged lawn ended and the darker, well-kept expanse of his began. I suspected he meant my grass.” (Fitzgerald, 80) This presents the theme of appearance vs. reality and how Gatsby wants everything to look nice and presentable for when he meets up with Daisy for the first time in five years. Gatsby becomes corrupted because his main goal is to have Daisy. He needs to have an enormous mansion so he could feel confident enough to try and get Daisy. Gatsby was blinded by the American dream and as a result of this, cause destruction of Gatsby himself. He didn’t end up getting what he wanted because the American dream took over who he truly was.
The American dream is a powerful dream that was significant in the novel The Great Gatsby by Scott Fitzgerald. It was evident that this dream only truly caused corruption and destruction. The desire for something sometimes causes people to be someone they are not and this usually does not result in a positive outcome. The American Dream is defined as someone starting low on the economic or social level, and working hard towards prosperity and or wealth and fame. Most characters in the novel The Great Gatsby all wanted money, wealth and happiness and would do anything in their power to get this. The Great Gatsby is a novel that shows what happened to the American Dream in the 1920’s, which is a time period when the dreams became corrupted. The American dream not only causes corruption but has caused destruction. Myrtle, Gatsby and Daisy have all been corrupted and destroyed by the dream and it was clear to be true. Money cannot buy you happiness which is something that the three characters in the novel The Great Gatsby truly did not realize.
